The inaugural series of TEN’s The Bachelorette Australia is proving to be a Twitter juggernaut for the network.

The AFL Grand Final clash between the West Coast Eagles and Hawthorn was the champ on the sports chart. The game recorded a mindblowing 8.9m tweet impressions ahead of the NRL Grand Final at #2 with 7.9m.
